Chapter 1060: Chapter 1034: Wu Fayi

Shengfeng Academy is located on the eastern side of Shengfeng City, covering a vast area, almost like a small city within the city.

There are two sacred locations in Shengfeng City, one is the City Lord’s Mansion, and the other is this Shengfeng Academy.

Because of the presence of Shengfeng Academy, the streets around Shengfeng Academy are bustling, with all kinds of shops available. Magic Artifact Shops, Talisman Treasure Shops, spell shops, inns, restaurants, and so on are numerous, fully displaying the prosperity of Shengfeng City.

Shengfeng City is also extremely well-planned, better than all the cities seen so far in this regard.

Riding on the Flying Heavenly Chariot of the Holy Sun, Tangyu and his companions directly landed in front of the grand main gate of Shengfeng Academy. Holy Sun smiled and said, “We’ve arrived.”

Upon seeing the gate of Shengfeng Academy, they had already overlooked the entire Shengfeng Academy from the sky and felt the extreme grandeur of Shengfeng Academy. But seeing the main gate of this academy still gave an extremely shocking impression. Compared to it, the universities on Earth simply paled in comparison, differing as much as heaven and earth. Standing in front of the academy’s gate, one could feel the sanctity of Shengfeng Academy, discouraging any misconduct.

The rich atmosphere of cultivation also stirred people, urging them to cultivate devoutly.

Entering through the main gate of Shengfeng Academy led to a massive circular plaza. This plaza diverted the flow of people, linking roads to various areas of Shengfeng Academy. Most striking was the bizarre black stone located at the center of the plaza. This stone had several long marks on it, appearing as if some sharp weapon had left them there.

“Hmm?” Upon seeing the black stone, Tangyu’s eyebrows slightly furrowed as a strange feeling surged in his heart.

Xing Tian and Wang Qiutian also looked over, each feeling something very peculiar, prompting Tangyu and the others to walk over, quickly arriving before the black stone.

Feeling the few marks on that black stone, Tangyu was shocked: “Such terrifying Sword Qi, such astounding Sword Dao, could this sword contain the Origin of the Sword Path’s formidable power?”

Within Tangyu’s heart, a slight resonance arose, sensing the true power of the Origin of the Sword Path. Although Tangyu had barely touched on a hint of the Origin of the Sword Path, it was only a mere surface, not the genuine power of its origin. Yet, the few marks on the black stone seemed to embody the true power of the Origin of the Sword Path, which was mind-blowingly astonishing to Tangyu, striking his heart as if pierced deeply.

The faces of Xing Tian and the others also showed hints of amazement.

Holy Sun smiled and said, “This is a Miracle Stone my father obtained from an unknown realm. Even my father doesn’t know its origin. It is indestructibly sturdy, and with my father’s strength, he couldn’t leave the smallest mark on it even with all his might.”

What?

Holy Sun’s words indeed astonished Tangyu and his companions. The City Lord of Shengfeng City is reportedly a Great Power of the Zifu Realm, yet he couldn’t leave a mark on this black stone even with his full power? How unbelievably hard must this black stone be? It’s simply unimaginable.

Holy Sun continued, “Haha, don’t be surprised; these sword scars on the black stone, we don’t even know what kind of existence left them, but it can be certain that they should have been left by at least a Demi Immortal of the Seeking Immortal Realm. These sword scars all reveal the power of the Origin of the Sword Path. If one can comprehend these sword scars, they can touch the Origin of the Sword Path. Therefore, my father left this black stone here for the disciples of Shengfeng Academy to observe, hoping it could inspire and lay the foundation for future touches of the Origin of the Sword Path.”

Tangyu then realized why, feeling even more amazed and admiring the City Lord of Shengfeng City for his selflessness, leaving such a thing directly in Shengfeng Academy.

This black stone alone is a boundless treasure. These few sword marks are also supreme treasures.

Holy Sun added, “This black stone is indeed one of the symbols of our Shengfeng Academy, known to all as the Holy Stone. However, the sword marks on it are too profound, even my father hasn’t comprehended much.”

These sword scars are indeed too profound, and Tangyu also felt that they were incredibly difficult to comprehend.

“Oh, isn’t this our Young Master Holy Sun? I heard you went to hunt that evil demon. Looks like you brought back a lot of helpers.” Suddenly, a somewhat harsh voice was heard, and a young man approached, surrounded by several others, all of whom were clearly disciples of Shengfeng Academy, numbering over a dozen.

Leading them was a man in his late twenties, dressed in golden clothes, exuding an imposing presence but also a rebellious air. One look, and it was clear this person was incredibly arrogant. From his tone when speaking directly to Holy Sun, it was evident that his strength and talent wouldn’t be below Holy Sun’s, and his status must also be quite high. Otherwise, how could he dare speak to Holy Sun in such a manner?

This prompted some curiosity among Tangyu and his companions. Who could he be?

Seeing the newcomer, Holy Sun’s eyebrows raised slightly as he said, “Wu Fayi, your information is indeed quite timely. I just set foot in the academy, and here you come. Whether I enlisted friends’ help to kill that evil demon is of no consequence. If you have the prowess, feel free to pursue yourself. I hardly find it a matter of embarrassment.”

Wu Fayi smiled and said, “It’s indeed not something to be ashamed of, but aren’t you known as the top genius of our Saint Feng Academy, the first among disciples? Everyone has high expectations of you. If you need someone else’s help to kill a demon, it’s only natural for people to joke about it, right? I’m just concerned about your reputation.”

Holy Sun said, “There’s no need for you to worry about me then. All those titles like the top genius, the first disciple, are just empty names. If you want them, you can have them.”

Upon hearing Holy Sun’s words, Wu Fayi’s expression also turned slightly unpleasant, and he said with a cold smile, “If I want them, I will take them openly and aboveboard. Don’t speak to me in such a condescending tone.”

Holy Sun shook his head, unwilling to entangle himself with Wu Fayi, and said, “If you came here just to say these things to me, then I’ve been instructed. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way.”

With that, Holy Sun was about to take Tangyu and the others to handle the enrollment procedures at the academy. Wu Fayi and his group followed closely, without saying a word, just following.

Seeing these people following, Holy Sun frowned, knowing that today was likely to encounter some trouble, which left him somewhat helpless and angry.

Tangyu naturally also noticed that Wu Fayi was apparently targeting them. It seemed that it would not be easy for them to join Saint Feng Academy today; there would be some obstacles.

Holy Sun quietly said to Tangyu, “Brother Tangyu, I suspect Wu Fayi will make things difficult for you. Be careful. Wu Fayi has always been at odds with me. His talent and strength are not below mine, but because of my status, more people call me the top genius and first disciple of Saint Feng Academy, which has always bothered Wu Fayi. So, he constantly opposes me and seizes every opportunity to cause trouble for me.”

“His information network is indeed well-informed. He probably received news from our side, knowing that my father approved your admission to Saint Feng Academy, so he brought people here.”

Tangyu smirked, now realizing the situation, no wonder he dared to oppose Holy Sun at every turn. Saint Feng Academy is indeed worthy of its reputation, even having two geniuses like Holy Sun is incredible. Such a scenario would not exist in other forces.

However, in the face of Wu Fayi, Tangyu remained calm and composed, not worried at all: “There’s no need for Brother Holy Sun to worry about me, you should know my strength.”

Holy Sun smiled and nodded, knowing well the strength of Tangyu, who was undoubtedly above him, perhaps even significantly so. When it came to talent, Holy Sun felt inferior to Tangyu, who was a stunningly extraordinary talent capable of directly building a Yin Yang Dao Foundation.

And there’s Xing Tian, whose talent and strength were also not inferior to Holy Sun’s. Only Wang Qiutian and the others were slightly weaker, but they were still top-notch talents, fully qualified to become Saint Heirs within Saint Feng Academy.

Wu Fayi causing trouble for Tangyu and his peers was undoubtedly asking for trouble himself. Since Wu Fayi wanted to bring trouble upon himself, Holy Sun decided to let him.

Soon, the group arrived at the Main Affairs Hall, where the Elder of the hall was already waiting.

Holy Sun introduced to Tangyu and the others, “Brother Tangyu, this is the Elder of the Main Affairs Hall of our Saint Feng Academy, responsible for many of the academy’s affairs.”

“Greetings, Elder!” Tangyu and the others respectfully bowed, still humble in front of such a powerful figure.

The Elder had a childlike face adorned with white hair, with an immortal’s demeanor, looking kind-hearted and with a hint of an approachable smile, making one feel very cordial and not oppressed. The first impression given was extremely positive.

However, Tangyu guessed that the Elder’s strength might not be below that of his master, the Sect Master of Yanshan Sect.

Saint Feng Academy truly is a place brimming with powerful individuals.

The Elder cast his gaze over the ten of them with a smile and nodded, “Since you have been personally ordered by the City Lord to be received as disciples, there’s no need for any assessments on my end. You really don’t need to undergo any assessments either, it’s just a formality. Now, I’m going to issue you Identity Tokens, and once you receive the tokens, you will officially become disciples of Saint Feng Academy and must strictly adhere to the academy’s rules.”

Tangyu and the others all nodded, this was something they naturally understood: “As disciples, we will definitely keep it in mind and never dare to forget.”

The Elder nodded, with a move of his hand, revealing ten previously prepared Identity Tokens. Once they received the tokens and refined them, they would officially become disciples of Saint Feng Academy.

Just as Tangyu and the others were about to receive the Identity Tokens, a voice rang out, “Wait!”
